M e s s a g e F r o m T h e P r e s i d e n tSr. Jacquelyn Gusdane, SNDour alumni andstudents have freelychosen to discoverand develop <strong>the</strong>irgifts of m<strong>in</strong>d andheart <strong>in</strong> leadershipand service too<strong>the</strong>rs. Thismovement is core to<strong>the</strong> NDCL experience!Without a doubt, fall is exquisite <strong>in</strong> its breathtak<strong>in</strong>gbeauty on <strong>the</strong> NDCL campus. Visitors and parentsoften f<strong>in</strong>d it difficult to capture <strong>in</strong> words but <strong>the</strong>y know<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir hearts that <strong>the</strong>y have touched <strong>the</strong> artistryof our God. A senior boy said to me, “Sister, you justcan’t describe <strong>the</strong> experience!” This comment onlyconfirms for me that our students do not miss much– we may th<strong>in</strong>k <strong>the</strong>y do – but <strong>the</strong>y don’t. They notice,question, suggest, challenge and take action because<strong>the</strong>y are a part of an excit<strong>in</strong>g community with endlessopportunities. In our 760 young men and women, ourmission is alive and visible.This community is rooted <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> alumni from NotreDame Academy and Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> School whotreasured Catholic education and cherished <strong>the</strong>Christian values <strong>in</strong>stilled <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>m. Their passion forbuild<strong>in</strong>g a community of faith and learn<strong>in</strong>g is ourbless<strong>in</strong>g today. This last<strong>in</strong>g legacy comes to life <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>unsolicited comments I heard a few days ago, “I loveNDCL!” “I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.”My deepest hope for our students is that for each <strong>the</strong>NDCL experience will be a lifetime experience whereby,as transform<strong>in</strong>g leaders <strong>in</strong> our world, <strong>the</strong>y can live <strong>the</strong>truth <strong>in</strong> love as <strong>Jesus</strong> did. This past June we celebratedNDCL’s 20th Commencement. We now count 3600men and women as NDCL alumni. In March, 1988when NDA and CL became NDCL, who would haveimag<strong>in</strong>ed such growth?We are at a new turn<strong>in</strong>g po<strong>in</strong>t, <strong>in</strong> July NDCL’s second fiveyear strategic plan, Transform<strong>in</strong>g Lives ~ Chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>World, 2010 -2015, was approved by our Board. Thefocus is clear and <strong>the</strong> direction is known as we worktoward our vision. Let yourself enter <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> NDCLexperience as you read about <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>volvement andoutreach of our students, alumni, faculty, and Board.Each <strong>in</strong> his or her own way has discovered ways todevelop and share <strong>the</strong>ir gifts of m<strong>in</strong>d and heart <strong>in</strong>leadership and service to o<strong>the</strong>rs.The young men and women of NDCL notice usand seek <strong>the</strong> witness of our deep faith <strong>in</strong> God,our goodness, and generosity. I trust that allof us want Notre Dame-Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> Schoolto move forward <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> future with hope andconfidence. We, as a Catholic school community,depend on you to support and susta<strong>in</strong> us. Whatgreater gift can you give?Know you are always welcome at NDCL. Onceyou experience NDCL, you too will echo <strong>the</strong>words of one of our students who, <strong>in</strong> simplicityand s<strong>in</strong>cerity, said to me a month ago, “I am sograteful to be a Lion!”Sr. Jacquelyn visits classrooms <strong>in</strong> Japan this summer with<strong>the</strong> Japan-U.S. Teacher Exchange Program for Educationfor Susta<strong>in</strong>able Development (ESD). Adm<strong>in</strong>istered byFulbright Japan, its purpose was to raise awareness ofESD-oriented school programs, enhance ESD-relatedcurricula <strong>in</strong> both countries and deepen a sense of global<strong>in</strong>terconnectedness and cooperation between teachers <strong>in</strong>Japan and <strong>the</strong> United States.Transform<strong>in</strong>gLives ~Chang<strong>in</strong>g<strong>the</strong> WorldNDCL’s NewStrategic PlanSets Five-YearCourseFor three months, 14 members of <strong>the</strong> NDCL community wereentrusted with design<strong>in</strong>g and develop<strong>in</strong>g a new strategic plan.Representation from all NDCL constituencies—adm<strong>in</strong>istration,families, alumni and community—ensured a balancedapproach to plann<strong>in</strong>g for <strong>the</strong> school’s future. The strategicplann<strong>in</strong>g committee chose Transform<strong>in</strong>g Lives ~ Chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>World as <strong>the</strong> plan <strong>the</strong>me.“NDCL is all about educat<strong>in</strong>g young students and prepar<strong>in</strong>gour Catholic leaders for tomorrow,” says Bruce Jarosz,chairperson of NDCL’s Board of Directors, strategic plann<strong>in</strong>gcommittee member, and chief f<strong>in</strong>ancial officer and vicepresident of operations for MF Cachat Company,Lakewood. “Our hope is that our students will beleaders who go out <strong>in</strong>to<strong>the</strong>ir communities andmake a real impact.”Your TurnThanks, Sister Jacquelyn. Keven Krajnak’s generous assistance, <strong>the</strong> hospitality of everyone connected with <strong>the</strong>school, and especially your presence at our events, made us all feel like we had come home to a sett<strong>in</strong>g aswelcome and familiar as if we had been meet<strong>in</strong>g on East 107th St.! It is my regret that we did not expose our CLSclassmates to <strong>the</strong> NDCL experience years ago, because everyone I talked with was impressed with how true NDCLhas been to <strong>the</strong> spirit and values of CLS. I can assure you that my vote will be to have all of our future reunionslocated on <strong>the</strong> campus of our alma mater – NDCL.With gratitude,Bob Valerian ‘60 Notre Dame - Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> Seasons Fall 2010 2Notre Dame - Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> Seasons Fall 2010 3


Transform<strong>in</strong>g Lives ~ Chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> World (cont<strong>in</strong>ued from page 3)“Entrust yourworks to <strong>the</strong> Lord,and your planswill succeed.”~ Proverbs 16:3“F<strong>in</strong>alized <strong>in</strong> July, <strong>the</strong> 2010 - 2015 plan differs significantly from its 2005 predecessor”,cont<strong>in</strong>ues Jarosz. The 2004 -2009 strategic plan focused on establish<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>necessary school <strong>in</strong>frastructure so NDCL could function on its own. The currectstrategic plan cont<strong>in</strong>ues NDCL’s focus on its Catholic identity, academic excellenceand its position and presence <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> greater community. The seven goals of <strong>the</strong> newstrategic plan are as follows:1. Renew and fur<strong>the</strong>r develop NDCL’s culture ofacademic excellence, reflect<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> educationalvision and pr<strong>in</strong>ciples of <strong>the</strong> Sisters of Notre Dame.The plan ensures external measures of student success and 21 stcentury learn<strong>in</strong>g experiences.2. To nurture <strong>in</strong> each student a sense of confidence,self esteem and self awareness grounded <strong>in</strong> NDCL’smission, vision and core values.<strong>As</strong> part of <strong>the</strong> process, <strong>the</strong> committee reviewed and streng<strong>the</strong>nedNSCL’s mission, vision and core values. Accord<strong>in</strong>g to Jarosz, <strong>the</strong> school’scommitment to its Catholic identity and its susta<strong>in</strong>ability <strong>in</strong>itiatives isfocused, direct and clear.3. To streng<strong>the</strong>n <strong>the</strong> professional skills and capabilitiesof faculty and staff.Boost<strong>in</strong>g professional skills has a positive affect on academicexcellence. NDCL will cont<strong>in</strong>ue to implement <strong>the</strong> latest technologyand sound educational <strong>in</strong>novations.4. Develop a broader <strong>in</strong>novative enrollmentmanagementplan.Demographic studies show that <strong>the</strong> traditional source of enrollment atNDCL – Catholic elementary schools – is shr<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g. NDCL will seek newways to reach out <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> community and connect with families whomay be <strong>in</strong>terested enroll<strong>in</strong>g a child at NDCL.5. To enhance NDCL’s image and profile.All communications regard<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> school will conta<strong>in</strong> a consistent messageand streng<strong>the</strong>n its position <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> community.6. To streng<strong>the</strong>n NDCL’s Board of Directors,composition, structure, and function<strong>in</strong>g.“There’s a lot of heavy lift<strong>in</strong>g that needs to be done for <strong>the</strong> school and a lotof challenges fac<strong>in</strong>g Catholic education,” Jarosz says. “We need to cont<strong>in</strong>uework<strong>in</strong>g on streng<strong>the</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> capabilities of <strong>the</strong> Board of Directors.”7. To enhance NDCL’s capacity to <strong>in</strong>crease its philanthropicsupport and generate new revenue sources.“Giv<strong>in</strong>g back secures NDCL’s future,” concluded Jarosz.“Though <strong>the</strong>re are seven goals, it is clear that NDCL needs to develop fur<strong>the</strong>r sources of revenue besidestraditional fees and tuition. Due to <strong>the</strong> current economy, more families are qualify<strong>in</strong>g for f<strong>in</strong>ancial aid. It iscritical for NDCL to connect with its alumni and <strong>the</strong> community, and educate <strong>the</strong>m on how important <strong>the</strong>irsupport is”, says Jarosz.“This is <strong>the</strong> Board’s guid<strong>in</strong>g light for <strong>the</strong> next five years,” he says. “All of <strong>the</strong> Board’s work centers aroundwhat’s go<strong>in</strong>g on with <strong>the</strong> plan. It’s a very important document and we’re committed to carry<strong>in</strong>g it throughand accomplish<strong>in</strong>g our goals.”Putt<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> plan <strong>in</strong>to actionNow that <strong>the</strong> strategic plan is f<strong>in</strong>alized, <strong>the</strong> NDCL Board of Directors will assign each of <strong>the</strong> plan’s goals toa committee so action items, accountability and timel<strong>in</strong>es can be developed.Dr. John Yankey, Ph.D., consultant with Beachwood-based Yankey & <strong>As</strong>sociates, served as facilitator for <strong>the</strong>committee. Yankey, professor emeritus from Case Western Reserve University’s Mandel School of Applied SocialSciences and <strong>the</strong> Mandel Center for Nonprofit Organizations, was <strong>in</strong>volved with NDCL’s 2004 strategic plann<strong>in</strong>g.“Data collection was one area that fell quickly <strong>in</strong>to place”, he says.“Ord<strong>in</strong>arily, we would do a perceptual analysis survey to get perceptions of strengths and weaknesses of <strong>the</strong>organization,” says Yankey. “We were very fortunate because NDCL was go<strong>in</strong>g thorough its reaccreditationprocess. Information was ga<strong>the</strong>red <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> fall of 2009 from <strong>the</strong> last six graduat<strong>in</strong>g classes of alumni, and fromfaculty, parents and present students.”In addition, <strong>the</strong> committee analyzed several key reference documents, ma<strong>in</strong>ly <strong>the</strong> report, Dollars and Sense:Catholic High Schools and Their F<strong>in</strong>ances 2009 (Executive Summary), by Mary Frances Taymans, SND, Ed.D.and Christiane Connors. This helped <strong>the</strong> group better understand how NDCL compares with o<strong>the</strong>r Catholichigh schools <strong>in</strong> characteristics, demographics, enrollment, salary, leadership, adm<strong>in</strong>istration, governance,and fund development. The committee reviewed <strong>the</strong> recently conducted assessment of NDCL’s funddevelopment program, created by Yankey’s bus<strong>in</strong>ess partner and wife, Sylvia, <strong>in</strong> 2009.After work<strong>in</strong>g closely with <strong>the</strong> members of NDCL’s strategic plann<strong>in</strong>g committee, Yankey was quiteimpressed with <strong>the</strong>ir level of commitment.“I do a number of strategic plans and, ord<strong>in</strong>arily, even if you already have a lotof <strong>the</strong> data that I mentioned, plann<strong>in</strong>g takes about six months,” he says. “Thiscommittee did this work <strong>in</strong> a three-month timeframe—<strong>the</strong>y were quiteamaz<strong>in</strong>g. I can’t praise <strong>the</strong>m too highly.”Yankey also commends <strong>the</strong> enthusiasm and <strong>in</strong>tellect of <strong>the</strong> entire strategicplann<strong>in</strong>g committee, led by co-chairs L<strong>in</strong>da (Saranita) McHugh NDA ’77,executive adm<strong>in</strong>istrator for <strong>the</strong> Cleveland Cl<strong>in</strong>ic Foundation, and attorneyand consultant Marty Degnan.Now that <strong>the</strong> strategic plan is f<strong>in</strong>alized, McHugh will chair a strategicplann<strong>in</strong>g task force. This small group will work with <strong>the</strong> Board committees andestablish <strong>the</strong> process for develop<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> action steps, timel<strong>in</strong>ess andresources needed.“I th<strong>in</strong>k we’re go<strong>in</strong>g to be work<strong>in</strong>g on leverag<strong>in</strong>g a lot of resources <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> staff,parent, alumni, and parent communities,” says McHugh. “It’s go<strong>in</strong>g to take a groupeffort to get some of <strong>the</strong>se items done.”McHugh predicts that some goals will be met with<strong>in</strong> a short time while o<strong>the</strong>rswill require foundation build<strong>in</strong>g. S<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>the</strong> strategic plan is based on NDCL’smission, vision and core values, all committee members will keep<strong>the</strong>se <strong>in</strong> m<strong>in</strong>d as <strong>the</strong>y work toward achiev<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>ir goals.“I am excited to participate <strong>in</strong> this process as an alumna of NotreDame Academy,” says McHugh. “It’s good to see that NDCL is sosuccessful and has a dist<strong>in</strong>ct identity. I am look<strong>in</strong>g forward tohelp<strong>in</strong>g it move <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> future.”4 Notre Dame - Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> Seasons Seasons Fall 2010 Fall 20105


<strong>Liv<strong>in</strong>g</strong> <strong>the</strong> truth <strong>in</strong>love, as <strong>Jesus</strong> didNDCL students & alumni are transform<strong>in</strong>g worldFrom <strong>the</strong> streets of Cleveland’s near west side, to <strong>the</strong> impoverished town of Nuevo Paraiso <strong>in</strong> Honduras,to <strong>the</strong> coffee-grow<strong>in</strong>g, rural village of Savegre <strong>in</strong> Costa Rica, NDCL students and alumni are liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> highschool’s mission, vision and core values and transform<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> world, as <strong>Jesus</strong> did, by liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> truth <strong>in</strong> love.While many of us are weighed down with jobs, educational pursuits, and family responsibilities that preventour tak<strong>in</strong>g time to work amid <strong>the</strong> downtrodden and oppressed, <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g vignettes lend credence toMo<strong>the</strong>r Theresa’s words: “If you can’t feed a hundred people, <strong>the</strong>n feed just one.”J o h n Pa u l W a n n e r ‘ 0 5After attend<strong>in</strong>g Villanova University, <strong>in</strong> Philadelphia, John Paul (JP)Wanner ‘05 returned to Cleveland and was hired as an orthopaedicresearcher at University Hospitals Case Medical Center. Despitea crush<strong>in</strong>g workload, JP volunteers a few hours each week atThe Refugee Response (TRR), an organization that educates andempowers refugees who settle <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> US to become self-sufficientand contribut<strong>in</strong>g members of <strong>the</strong>ir new communities.Each year, approximately 850 refugees legally settle <strong>in</strong> CuyahogaCounty seek<strong>in</strong>g freedom, peace and opportunity for <strong>the</strong>mselves and<strong>the</strong>ir families.; many from <strong>the</strong> countries of Burma, Bhutan, Somalia,Ukra<strong>in</strong>e, and Russia. Frequently, resettlement agencies provide onlythree to six months of assistance, after which refugees are expectedto acquire English language skills and be self sufficient.JP works one-on-one tutor<strong>in</strong>g a 6th-grade Burmese refugee namedHa Za La. He enjoys his relationship with Haz and is currentlyorganiz<strong>in</strong>g a group of NDCL students who will help tutor an entirerefugee family on Cleveland’s near west side.In addition, JP and o<strong>the</strong>rs with TRR are transform<strong>in</strong>g several acres ofland <strong>in</strong> Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood <strong>in</strong>to a garden throughRefugee Empowerment Agricultural Program (REAP). Instead ofweeds and rubble on land previously owned by Cleveland MunicipalHous<strong>in</strong>g Authority, neighbors now see tomatoes, radishes, onions,cabbage, melon and o<strong>the</strong>r vegetables grow<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> land.“Service was always at <strong>the</strong> heart of my NDCL education, and you neverreally know what those words mean until you start to experience<strong>the</strong>m. Every time you volunteer and immerse yourself <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> hardshipsand struggles that are all around you, you beg<strong>in</strong> to understand <strong>the</strong>bless<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>in</strong> your own life. Only <strong>the</strong>n can you really give of yourself asyou realize all that you have and <strong>the</strong> importance of giv<strong>in</strong>g back.”“I have been extremely blessed and have grown up with countlessopportunities to learn what it means to be a leader by liv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> truth<strong>in</strong> love, as Christ did. Many are not afforded <strong>the</strong> same bless<strong>in</strong>gs; andI feel it is my responsibility to take advantage and make a difference.I have learned that every opportunity presents new ways to learn,though <strong>the</strong>y are often unanticipated. Say ‘yes’ and you will grow, say‘no’ and you will regress. A great example was lived out by Christ. Hegave us all a template to follow, but we must ei<strong>the</strong>r accept or deny it.Answer<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> call becomes a different experience for each <strong>in</strong>dividual.”JP plans to attend medical school and eventually complete anorthopaedic residency.C at h e r i n e H y l a n d ‘ 1 2“Dur<strong>in</strong>g my sophomore year at NDCL, I completedmy service hours by volunteer<strong>in</strong>g at William PatrickDay Early Childhood Center. I met countless amaz<strong>in</strong>gchildren over those few days, and I knew I would trulyenjoy cont<strong>in</strong>u<strong>in</strong>g to work and play with <strong>the</strong>m. This iswhy I made my decision to volunteer at LighthouseSummer Camp this summer,” Ca<strong>the</strong>r<strong>in</strong>e Hyland states.Lighthouse Summer Camp is a program offered through<strong>the</strong> Cuyahoga County Board of Mental Retardationand Developmental Disabilities. While friends call her“Cat,” Lighthouse staff call her amaz<strong>in</strong>g! Cat workedwith children with mental retardation, autism, cerebralpalsy, traumatic bra<strong>in</strong> <strong>in</strong>jury and o<strong>the</strong>r developmentaldisabilities -- mak<strong>in</strong>g camp fun as well as educational.Daily activities <strong>in</strong>cluded mak<strong>in</strong>g crafts, read<strong>in</strong>g books,s<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g songs and play<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> playground.She <strong>in</strong>sists she sees more abilities <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>se young folksthan disabilities. “I th<strong>in</strong>k each child is so special <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>irown way.” She po<strong>in</strong>ts to one young boy with a smile,“Evan can talk to me for hours at a time and keep melaugh<strong>in</strong>g all <strong>the</strong> while, and Susan here is a great artist.”“By be<strong>in</strong>g a part of <strong>the</strong> NDCL community, I always domy best to assure justice and respect for all people, nomatter who <strong>the</strong>y are or where <strong>the</strong>y come from,” Catexpla<strong>in</strong>s.”Integrity is very important to me also, and Ihope to always be consistent <strong>in</strong> my values and morals. Ith<strong>in</strong>k that if everyone took NDCL’s first four core valuesto heart, reach<strong>in</strong>g excellence would be almost effortless.““Cat is a kid magnet,” Elizabeth Whelan, M.Ed., EarlyChildhood Instructor and Lighthouse Summer CampDirector, <strong>in</strong>sists. “She is one of those people who sticksout when you are look<strong>in</strong>g for employees. Cat is reliable,pleasant, friendly and wonderful to watch as she<strong>in</strong>teracts with <strong>the</strong> children with <strong>the</strong> most challeng<strong>in</strong>gbehaviors and who have multiple needs. She hasskills way above her age level. People compete over<strong>in</strong>dividuals like her to have <strong>the</strong>m as a volunteer. I hit <strong>the</strong>jackpot when she decided to do her service time here.”After college, Cat shared that one of her dreams “is toacquire and enjoy a job that will allow me to travel andhelp o<strong>the</strong>rs <strong>in</strong> less fortunate areas of <strong>the</strong> world. I havefaith that no matter where life takes me, service willalways rema<strong>in</strong> a part of who I am.”J u l i a n W i l s o n ‘ 1 3Decid<strong>in</strong>g to serve o<strong>the</strong>rs <strong>in</strong> Honduras this summer was easy for NDCLsophomore Julian Wilson. Gesu, his parish church, has sponsored 11missiontrips to Honduras over <strong>the</strong> years, with a great deal of awareness result<strong>in</strong>g amongits parishioners. Julian is <strong>the</strong> last of <strong>the</strong> Wilson’s four children to make thistrip. Bro<strong>the</strong>rs Andrew ‘06 and Chris ‘07 volunteered <strong>the</strong>re, along sister Maria.In fact, <strong>the</strong>ir mo<strong>the</strong>r Meg has gone a few times, too – all volunteer<strong>in</strong>g with anorganization called Sociedad.For more than 40 years, Sociedad founder Sr. Maria Rosa Leggot has deliveredhope and an opportunity to forge a brighter future through self-pride and selfsusta<strong>in</strong>abilityfor <strong>the</strong> women and children of Honduras. In that time, more than35,000 children have been rescued, cared for and educated.Julian unassum<strong>in</strong>gly views himself as simply one person lend<strong>in</strong>g a hand <strong>in</strong> NuevoParaiso, a small village for s<strong>in</strong>gle mo<strong>the</strong>rs and <strong>the</strong>ir children.The task at hand is great. Honduras’ illiteracy rate nears 24 percent. Many schoolsdo not have electricity or runn<strong>in</strong>g water. Desks often have to accommodate upto three at a time and supplies are nonexistent. Julian expla<strong>in</strong>s, “We are <strong>the</strong>re tohelp <strong>the</strong>m f<strong>in</strong>d hope and live a productive and mean<strong>in</strong>gful life.”“The project I was <strong>in</strong>volved <strong>in</strong> was f<strong>in</strong>ish<strong>in</strong>g a sidewalk. O<strong>the</strong>r projects <strong>in</strong>cludedpa<strong>in</strong>t<strong>in</strong>g a new house for <strong>the</strong> kids to live <strong>in</strong> and lay<strong>in</strong>g a water pipe at a cl<strong>in</strong>ic,” says<strong>the</strong> NDCL student.The compassionate, young man recalled enthusiastically, “The kids were sofriendly. They ran up to us, hugged us and high-fived us.”“NDCL helped me to identify how I could improve <strong>the</strong> lives of those <strong>in</strong> need. InHonduras, <strong>in</strong> school, anywhere, a group has to work toge<strong>the</strong>r,” Julian expla<strong>in</strong>s.“The expectation asa student at NotreDame-Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong>is that you will live out<strong>the</strong> call to leadership– a leadership modeledafter <strong>Jesus</strong>. The call tolead <strong>the</strong> world <strong>in</strong> lovehas never been louder,and experienc<strong>in</strong>gdifferent ways of lifehas opened my eyes toenvision how differentsocial classes, countries,and communitiesmight work toge<strong>the</strong>rto promote love andunity. <strong>As</strong> an <strong>in</strong>dividualnot stricken by povertyor any o<strong>the</strong>r majorhardship, I feel it is myresponsibility to helpo<strong>the</strong>rs who have to facesuch burdens,” Julianemphatically states.Julian volunteers withgroups hous<strong>in</strong>g, feed<strong>in</strong>g,and cloth<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> urbanpoor of Cleveland.

When school resumed, a little boy ran up to me allexcited and exclaimed, ‘I am full.’ I realized <strong>in</strong> just that short period of time I hadtaught that child someth<strong>in</strong>g.

The RightChemistryFor Guy Savastano, becom<strong>in</strong>g a teacher at Notre Dame-Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> proved <strong>the</strong> right chemistry, enabl<strong>in</strong>g him tobond two passions <strong>in</strong> one career -- teach<strong>in</strong>g and social justice.Savastano left an impressive 22-year cl<strong>in</strong>ical-laboratory career toteach chemistry and co-mentor <strong>the</strong> NDCL Social Justice Club.co-moderator. Each year <strong>the</strong> Social Justice Club identifiesprojects to pursue -- such as our ‘Wheels for Justice’ bicycleride to Columbus to voice our opposition to <strong>the</strong> deathpenalty and our fair-trade fashion show that educatesstudents about Fair Trade.”Fair Trade is an organized social movement and marketbasedapproach that aims to help producers <strong>in</strong> develop<strong>in</strong>gcountries obta<strong>in</strong> better trad<strong>in</strong>g conditions and promotesusta<strong>in</strong>ability. The movement advocates <strong>the</strong> paymentof a higher price to producers as well as social andenvironmental standards. It focuses <strong>in</strong> particular on exportsfrom develop<strong>in</strong>g countries to developed countries, mostnotably handicrafts, coffee, cocoa, sugar, tea, bananas,honey, cotton, w<strong>in</strong>e, fresh fruit, chocolate, flowers and gold.The Social Justice Club is aligned with Catholic Schools forPeace and Justice, sponsored by <strong>the</strong> Catholic Diocese. Sr.Kathleen Ryan, SND, is NDCL’s l<strong>in</strong>k to <strong>the</strong> diocese.”O<strong>the</strong>r topics addressed through <strong>the</strong> years <strong>in</strong>cluded humantraffick<strong>in</strong>g and homelessness. “The students decide whatsocial justice topic <strong>the</strong>y want to focus on each year,” <strong>the</strong>committed teacher expla<strong>in</strong>s. In addition, each year Savastanotakes a group of students and faculty members to West Virg<strong>in</strong>iato help with <strong>the</strong> poor -- from build<strong>in</strong>g wheelchair ramps orreplac<strong>in</strong>g roofs to just lend<strong>in</strong>g a help<strong>in</strong>g hand to those <strong>in</strong> need.“I have no regrets leav<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> laboratory to enter <strong>the</strong> classroom.The students here <strong>in</strong>spire me with what <strong>the</strong>y say, <strong>the</strong>y causeme to look at th<strong>in</strong>gs <strong>in</strong> new and creative ways, <strong>the</strong>y make melaugh. In social justice, <strong>the</strong>y often have a different view or way oflook<strong>in</strong>g at it. I love each day,” Savastano concludes.He and his wife Kelly live <strong>in</strong> Independence. They have twochildren Elena, 22, and N<strong>in</strong>a, 10. For fun, <strong>the</strong> outdoorsmanenjoys backpack<strong>in</strong>g and hik<strong>in</strong>g, particularly <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> W<strong>in</strong>d RiverRange that stretches for about one hundred miles <strong>in</strong> westcentral Wyom<strong>in</strong>g.Equipped with a B.S. <strong>in</strong> Biology from Case Western Reverse University, Savastano’s workhistory began <strong>in</strong> immunology at Mt. S<strong>in</strong>ai Medical Center’s laboratory. From <strong>the</strong>re, hecompleted a one-year <strong>in</strong>ternship with <strong>the</strong> American Red Cross to become a specialist <strong>in</strong>blood bank<strong>in</strong>g. With this critical skill acquired, he was hired as <strong>the</strong> blood bank technicalsupervisor at MetroHealth Medical Center. Part of his job responsibilities <strong>in</strong>cluded staffeducation and tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g.After n<strong>in</strong>e years <strong>in</strong> this position, Savastano left MetroHealth to serve as <strong>the</strong> regulatory managerof <strong>the</strong> Red Cross for two years. The regulatory manager position was a great opportunity, butit lacked two qualities that Savastano enjoyed about his previous position -- work<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>lab and tra<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g staff. Therefore, he left <strong>the</strong> Red Cross to work at Allogen Laboratories at <strong>the</strong>Cleveland Cl<strong>in</strong>ic.“I worked <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cleveland Cl<strong>in</strong>ic’s Transplant Lab match<strong>in</strong>g organs from both cadaver donorsand liv<strong>in</strong>g donors,” Savastano expla<strong>in</strong>s. “I loved tissue-typ<strong>in</strong>g or histocompatibility. Every daywas different. It was challeng<strong>in</strong>g to f<strong>in</strong>d that one <strong>in</strong> a million match, and each week broughtnew challenges.”He admits, “I could have been happy work<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong>re forever. I had also become <strong>the</strong> tra<strong>in</strong>er <strong>in</strong><strong>the</strong> lab. I realized through this work experience, however, how much I enjoyed teach<strong>in</strong>g o<strong>the</strong>rs,and I was told I was good at it.”Savastano says he realized that if he was go<strong>in</strong>g to pursue a career <strong>in</strong> teach<strong>in</strong>g, it was time tomake <strong>the</strong> move. He attended Notre Dame College and earned his teach<strong>in</strong>g certificate.Today, Savastano is <strong>in</strong> his seventh year as a chemistry teacher at NDCL.“I love this school. NDCL is solid academically, and our students are well-rounded. One of <strong>the</strong>hidden gems at NDCL is its f<strong>in</strong>e art and perform<strong>in</strong>g arts programs. Equally important, <strong>the</strong>re isthat constant undercurrent of faith that students experience each day at <strong>the</strong> school. Br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>gspirituality <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> classroom makes sense. It’s someth<strong>in</strong>g a student can lean on and rely on,”Savastano passionately remarks. “Students thrive with faith as a foundation.”He cont<strong>in</strong>ues, “I was ecstatic that part of my job at NDCL was to be <strong>the</strong> Social Justice Club10 Notre Dame - Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> Seasons Fall 2010 11


NDCL Board Member Extols Valueof Catholic Education“A Catholic education will always be important. Its values, history andphilosophy are what make it <strong>in</strong>credibly useful throughout life,” <strong>in</strong>sists DougHogan, a member of <strong>the</strong> NDCL Board of Directors, and manager of ExternalAffairs with FirstEnergy (Cleveland Electric Illum<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g Company).Dear Friends of NDCL,This fall edition of Seasons gives evidence to <strong>the</strong> growth, vitality and <strong>in</strong>fluence of ourstudents, faculty, alumni and Board members. Once aga<strong>in</strong>, NDCL’s campaign prioritiesbecame a reality over <strong>the</strong> summer months: <strong>the</strong> cafeteria was renovated <strong>in</strong>to a placewhere teenagers can experience community; a new phone system is <strong>in</strong> operation and<strong>the</strong> security system was upgraded to assure a safe campus. We have been faithful to<strong>the</strong> campaign priorities and each year our families and alumni are enjoy<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> benefits:lights at Lion Stadium, tennis courts, accessible park<strong>in</strong>g, and a significant upgrade <strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>structional technology. It is evident that progress happens at NDCL.Serv<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> three county area of Geauga, Lake and eastern Cuyahoga, NDCL moves <strong>in</strong>to<strong>the</strong> future on solid ground. In August, NDCL welcomed 760 new and return<strong>in</strong>g students.This grow<strong>in</strong>g enrollment is a testament to our solid reputation as a leader <strong>in</strong> Catholiceducation. And, it is clear that our students, parents and alumni have a deep belief <strong>in</strong><strong>the</strong> mission of NDCL.Hogan graduated from Chardon High School <strong>in</strong> 1973 andadmits it wasn’t until attend<strong>in</strong>g John Carroll University tha<strong>the</strong> realized <strong>the</strong> tremendous value of a Catholic education.John Carroll was also <strong>the</strong> place that Doug met his wifeof 30 years, Cathy. Hogan earned a B.A. <strong>in</strong> educationfrom John Carroll <strong>in</strong> 1977, and later went on to receivea master’s degree <strong>in</strong> Education from Bowl<strong>in</strong>g GreenState University <strong>in</strong> 1980. In 1988, he graduated from <strong>the</strong>University of Toledo College of Law.He recalls how he first became acqua<strong>in</strong>ted with NDCL. “Ihave been a sports fan all my life. I remember read<strong>in</strong>gabout Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> and its <strong>in</strong>tense rivalries andsuccesses aga<strong>in</strong>st various schools <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> Cleveland area.Later, I will never forget read<strong>in</strong>g about Lat<strong>in</strong> clos<strong>in</strong>g itsdoors and how sad I felt,” Hogan reflects. “<strong>As</strong> for NotreDame Academy, I had friends that attended <strong>the</strong>rewhen I was <strong>in</strong> high school. I was aware of its wonderfuleducational reputation.”The excellent stand<strong>in</strong>g of both schools led Hogan and hiswife Cathy to send <strong>the</strong>ir two children to NDCL, Douglas‘05 and Madison ‘09. “Cathy and I were active at <strong>the</strong> schoolwhile my son and daughter attended, and I was honoredto even be considered for a Board position. I have servedon <strong>the</strong> NDCL Board of Directors for one year now. I’m stilla rookie,” he cautions with a chuckle. Cathy cont<strong>in</strong>uesto volunteer work<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> school’s premier fundraiser,Lion’s Mane Event.In addition to <strong>the</strong> outstand<strong>in</strong>g education his childrenreceived <strong>in</strong> preparation for college, Hogan is impressedwith <strong>the</strong> school’s mission, vision and core values. “Theeducators at NDCL want students to be more than justsuccessful when <strong>the</strong>y leave; <strong>the</strong>y want <strong>the</strong>ir alumni toshare <strong>the</strong>ir gifts and make a difference <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> world,” statesHogan. “The adm<strong>in</strong>istration and Sisters of Notre Damelead by example and <strong>in</strong>still this desire <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir students.”Hogan models a life of service as well, volunteer<strong>in</strong>g onfour additional Boards across nor<strong>the</strong>ast Ohio:• Parma Area Chamber of Commerce – where he servedas President and is currently on <strong>the</strong> Board.• The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce – which hehelped form nearly seven years ago and is currently <strong>the</strong>Vice President.• 3 Corner Round Pack Outfit – a summer camp for boys14 -15 years old that travels to Independence, Californiafor two months to work and hike <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> High Sierras.The trip is designed to build self confidence, selfreliance and mold boys <strong>in</strong>to men; and• Cleveland Speech and Hear<strong>in</strong>g CenterHe smiles, expla<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> personal satisfaction hereceives serv<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> Cleveland Hear<strong>in</strong>g & SpeechCenter Board. “Forty years ago, <strong>the</strong> President of CEIhad a daughter with hear<strong>in</strong>g problems and served on<strong>the</strong> board. S<strong>in</strong>ce <strong>the</strong>n, CEI always had a representativeon <strong>the</strong> board. My job <strong>in</strong> government affairs enabledme to help <strong>the</strong> Cleveland Hear<strong>in</strong>g & Speech Centerby provid<strong>in</strong>g valuable connections,” prefaces Hogan.However, his story really beg<strong>in</strong>s years earlier.“I played on a little league all-star team <strong>in</strong> Chardon whenI was approximately 12 years old. On that team was aboy my age named Tom that could not hear or speak.I remember sitt<strong>in</strong>g next to him <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> dugout and be<strong>in</strong>gunable to communicate with him. I cried at home thatnight. He had such a profound impact on me,” Hoganrecalls. “I prayed for Tom every night and at church foryears for a miracle.”Ironically, Hogan ran <strong>in</strong>to this man outside <strong>the</strong> Walmart <strong>in</strong>Chardon last September. “I saw two people sign<strong>in</strong>g, andafter I walked <strong>in</strong>to <strong>the</strong> store, I turned around and ran backto <strong>the</strong> park<strong>in</strong>g lot. That was Tom 40 years later. I had toask <strong>the</strong> ‘Private Ryan’ question: ‘Has he had a good life?’His daughter responded that ‘yes, he has been a verysuccessful carpenter, is married and has three daughtersof which I am one.’”“At that moment I realized God had answered myprayers as a child,” he says with tears <strong>in</strong> his eyes. “It’s stilla hard story to tell. God told me at that moment, ‘I tookcare of him for you.’ It also dawned on me that is why Iam on <strong>the</strong> Cleveland Hear<strong>in</strong>g & Speech Center Board.”Hogan cont<strong>in</strong>ues, “My employer FirstEnergy iscommitted, active and engaged <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> communities<strong>the</strong>y serve. FirstEnergy allows me to do what I doon <strong>the</strong>se boards, and <strong>the</strong>y will match <strong>the</strong> funds thatI give. <strong>As</strong> board members, we become one of <strong>the</strong>community leaders. It’s good for me as an employeeand demonstrates that my company really cares about<strong>the</strong> communities we serve.” His office is located <strong>in</strong>Concord, Ohio. Hogan acts as a liaison between <strong>the</strong>public and FirstEnergy, and prior to this position heworked for <strong>the</strong> company as a lobbyist <strong>in</strong> Columbus.“Serv<strong>in</strong>g on <strong>the</strong> NDCL Board is my way ofgiv<strong>in</strong>g back to <strong>the</strong> Sisters of Notre Dameand <strong>the</strong> adm<strong>in</strong>istration at NDCL for <strong>the</strong>wonderful education <strong>the</strong>y gave my sonand daughter,” he says.Hogan is excited about <strong>the</strong> school’s2010-2015 strategic plan, Transform<strong>in</strong>gLives ~ Chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> World. “With thisstrategic plan, we move forward <strong>in</strong> a timewhen cont<strong>in</strong>uous improvement and <strong>the</strong>use of new <strong>in</strong>novations will be attractiveto prospective students -- especially <strong>in</strong> acompetitive environment among o<strong>the</strong>rCatholic, college-preparatory schools.”He rem<strong>in</strong>ds members of <strong>the</strong> NDCLcommunity that while we have awonderful story to tell, we must cont<strong>in</strong>ueto strategically plan for <strong>the</strong> future.Revenue generated through <strong>the</strong> NDCLCapital Campaign provides a means tomake facility and technology upgrades aswell as offer f<strong>in</strong>ancial assistance to thosedesir<strong>in</strong>g a Catholic education for <strong>the</strong>irchildren who have limited f<strong>in</strong>ancial means.“We are <strong>in</strong> a very competitiveenvironment. NDCL must cont<strong>in</strong>ue toenhance its image and profile <strong>in</strong> nor<strong>the</strong>astOhio and expla<strong>in</strong> that our tuition isaffordable. We give every student $1,000off <strong>the</strong> actual cost of tuition. Moreover,for those families who can afford it, <strong>the</strong>yare encouraged to make up <strong>the</strong> $1,000difference <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> form of a tax-deductiblegift,” Hogan says. “I believe every childshould be able to come if <strong>the</strong>y qualify.”Doug and Cathy are proud parentsof Madison, now a sophomore at <strong>the</strong>University at Buffalo (SUNY) and Dougrecently graduated from Ohio University.The Auburn Township residents takepleasure <strong>in</strong> work<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir yard andgarden<strong>in</strong>g toge<strong>the</strong>r. Hogan also enjoyshik<strong>in</strong>g and hunt<strong>in</strong>g with his son, especiallydur<strong>in</strong>g deer season.<strong>As</strong> a Board, we are committed to <strong>the</strong> last<strong>in</strong>g value of a Catholic secondary educationborne of <strong>the</strong> strong traditions of Notre Dame Academy and Ca<strong>the</strong>dral Lat<strong>in</strong> School.Hav<strong>in</strong>g successfully completed our last five year plan, NDCL is poised to streng<strong>the</strong>nand solidify our reputation as a community of faith and learn<strong>in</strong>g. Consequently, <strong>in</strong>July, <strong>the</strong> Board of Members approved NDCL’s new five-year strategic plan, Transform<strong>in</strong>gLives ~ Chang<strong>in</strong>g <strong>the</strong> World, 2010-2015. And, while it’s costly - often requir<strong>in</strong>g sacrifice- we believe a Catholic education at NDCL is a gift that gives its graduates a foothold asnoth<strong>in</strong>g else does.For this reason, grow<strong>in</strong>g revenue from sources o<strong>the</strong>r than tuition and fees is a criticalelement <strong>in</strong> secur<strong>in</strong>g NDCL’s future. It is so important, <strong>in</strong> fact, that it is listed as a goal <strong>in</strong>our new strategic plan.Let me share with you some current statistics:Revenue• This past fiscal year <strong>the</strong> NDCL Fund saw an <strong>in</strong>crease of 25% over <strong>the</strong> previous year.Our goal over <strong>the</strong> next five years is to double this amount.• NDCL’s capital campaign, Ignit<strong>in</strong>g a Spirit of Community & Faith, has secured $2.7M<strong>in</strong> cash and commitments of its $4.5M goal. The Capstone Projects (creation of adedicated perform<strong>in</strong>g arts space and construction of a new Athletic Center) rema<strong>in</strong>.The $1M Challenge Grant from <strong>the</strong> Edward A. and Ca<strong>the</strong>r<strong>in</strong>e L. Lozick Foundationhas stimulated <strong>the</strong> capital campaign with over 500 donors and made our prioritieshappen. In order to successfully complete <strong>the</strong> campaign, NDCL must cont<strong>in</strong>ue thismomentum.Creative th<strong>in</strong>k<strong>in</strong>g, thoughtful strategic plann<strong>in</strong>g and your f<strong>in</strong>ancial support will cont<strong>in</strong>ueto move us closer to NDCL’s vision statement: “<strong>As</strong> <strong>the</strong>y live <strong>the</strong> truth <strong>in</strong> love, our graduateswill be dist<strong>in</strong>guished by leadership and service.”Bruce D.

Although NDCL and o<strong>the</strong>r nonpublicschools are not rated by <strong>the</strong> report card system, Mr. Whaler used<strong>the</strong> state’s criteria to create NDCL’s own report card to share itsperformance <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> 2009-2010 academic year.“I am delighted to report that NDCL far exceeded all 12 <strong>in</strong>dicatorsestablished for high schools and earned a performance <strong>in</strong>dexscore of 108.9,” said Pr<strong>in</strong>cipal Joseph A. Waler dur<strong>in</strong>g his remarksto parents at M<strong>in</strong>i-Class Night.“Even more impressive is how our scores compare to thosereported by <strong>the</strong> state for high schools <strong>in</strong> Lake and Geaugacounties. Our performance <strong>in</strong>dex of 108.9 stands at <strong>the</strong> very topof this list,” Waler added.The performance <strong>in</strong>dex, which can range from 0 to 120, is aweighted calculation of student performance on <strong>the</strong> OhioGraduation Tests (OGT). Schools with performance <strong>in</strong>dex scoresof 100 or more earn <strong>the</strong> “Excellent” designation.Report cards for all public schools <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> state are availableonl<strong>in</strong>e from <strong>the</strong> Ohio Department of Education.
